Shooraijin, thank you for posting this. I don't really actively follow anime/manga news, so it would have taken me a lot longer to find out if you hadn't.
While I have had some issues with things in the works of Matsumoto Leiji that I've read, despite that I still greatly enjoyed the worlds and stories he created, and if you ever see me on another website or platform with the username KaoriExpress999 or KaoriExpress, it's a specific tribute to Galaxy Express 999.
He had the imagination to create iconic series like Harlock that really stick with you, and will certainly be missed.

He certainly did. Although I agree some of his works are more problematic, he was clearly very creative.
